Monthly Archives: January 2012

This Saturday, 1/14/12, from 1 pm-4pm, there will be a talk in Tustin given by Patti Darcey, the Director of Volunteer Services with Heartland Hospice. When asked if any of their hospice clients are observed having communication or a vision not seen or heard by others in the room, her answer was “All the time”.

There will be lots of time for Q & A, or sharing.

The talk is hosted by the OC chapter of the International Alliance for Near-Death Studies (IANDS). We meet to talk about and share near-death experiences, questions about death and dying, and the latest information from NDE research. IANDS groups such as ours can be found in communities around the world.

MEETING DETAILS
We meet the 2nd Saturday of each month, from 1pm-4pm at Unity Church of Tustin, 14402 Prospect Ave., Tustin, CA. Drive to the back of the church, turn left, and park. We meet in the first room you come to.

Each meeting contains a break half-way through, and includes questions and answers, and discussion. There is no pressure to participate in a discussion.

Not everyone who attends has had a near-death or spiritually transformative experience. Everyone has their own reason why this group is of interest, and all are welcome.

We encourage a donation of $10 per person for our expenses, but no one is turned away.

An email RSVP for this meeting at OC-Iands@mail.com would be appreciated but not mandatory.

NO-HOST DINNER FOLLOWS MEETING
It’s often a fun extension of the meeting to meet for dinner afterwards. All interested are welcome. We meet at approximately 4:20 pm at Mimi’s Café, 17231 17th St., Tustin, (714) 544-5522. Directions: Leaving the church parking lot, turn right on Prospect. At 17th Street, turn Left. Get in right hand lane. A few blocks down, just before the 55 freeway, you’ll see Mimi’s on the right.

Coming up in February
You won’t want to miss guest speaker and author, David Bennett, who was caught in a violent storm off the California coast where he drowned and had a near-death experience. Later in time, he miraculously survived stage IV lung and bone cancer. For February only, the date we normally meet, the 2nd Saturday of the month, has been rescheduled to Saturday, February 18th, same time, 1-4pm and place. Mark your calendars now.
